Full Job Description

Hope Haven, where hope transforms families, is celebrating 100 years of serving students, families, and the community realizing the full potential of every individual through educational and clinical services supporting people from ages 3-22 with varying exceptionalities.

Hope Haven is seeking an Elementary Classroom Teacher to join our specialized education team serving children with intellectual or developmental disabilities. This role is ideal for someone who truly loves working directly with children, thrives in a structured environment, and takes pride in delivering high-quality instruction and classroom leadership.

We welcome candidates with or without a current teaching certification, although a Bachelors degree is required. What matters to us is demonstrated skill, sound judgment, and at least 2 years of experience working meaningfully with children in similar settings.

The compensation range posted accounts for a range of experience levels, with the upper end of the range for candidates with more extensive direct teaching experience of the population we serve.

What This Role Is Really About

You are the conductor of the classroom, maintaining the flow of the day, the structure of the environment, and the consistency that young learners depend on. You bring both technical proficiency and calm leadership, ensuring that instruction, behavior supports, and staff coordination come together seamlessly.

Your success will be measured by your ability to:

Understand each child deeply
Plan purposeful instruction
Keep the classroom running with predictable rhythm
Collaborate with colleagues and families
Communicate clearly, compassionately, and professionally

Key Responsibilities

1. Individualized Goal Setting & Documentation

Translate assessment results, parent interviews, and trial days into actionable, measurable goals across social, academic, and physical domains.
Use Hope Haven’s established ILP/IEP-style templates (and contribute ideas for continuous improvement).
Collect data and formally review progress regularly.
Communicate progress professionally to families, including during IDP meetings and as requested.

2. High-Quality Lesson Planning & Differentiated Instruction

Develop weekly/daily lesson plans aligned with the classroom’s established structure (circle time, literacy block, etc.).
Differentiate instruction for each child’s learning profile and functional level.
Collaborate with other classroom staff, assigning instructional activities and adapting materials appropriately.
Ensure teaching materials are prepared by using organizational resources (e.g., requesting preparation support with adequate notice).

3. Classroom Leadership & Management

Maintain fidelity to the classroom schedule, transitions, and visual supports.
Model effective classroom-wide behavior strategies (first–next boards, visual cues, routines).
Direct classroom staff with clarity and respect.
Maintain calm, flexibility, and problem-solving when unexpected behaviors or needs arise.

4. Collaboration & Team Coordination

Engage daily with colleagues during the morning case-staffing window to align on individual behavior plans developed with the BCBA.
Collaborate with interdisciplinary staff on the implementation and fidelity of behavior plans.
Communicate proactively with colleagues about emerging needs or concerns.

5. Professional Communication & Writing

Write clear, grammatically correct, fact-based notes and updates for families and colleagues.
Use designated systems for classroom communication and documentation.
Maintain respectful, regulated communication at all times, especially in challenging situations.

6. Authentic Understanding of the Population We Serve

Demonstrate patience, empathy, and attunement to children’s developmental, social, and emotional needs.
Approach each person with curiosity, not judgment.
Work comfortably alongside peers with different strengths, levels of experience, and working speeds.

Who Will Love This Role

Someone who wants to stay in the classroom—not move into administration.
Someone who enjoys structuring a day, creating meaningful lessons, and watching children grow.
A person who is both nurturing and firm, who can lead a classroom while staying regulated.
Someone who values consistency, predictability, and teamwork.
A professional who finds joy in the small wins and the long game of developmental progress.

Drug Testing and Background Screening Requirements:

Hope Haven requires all employees clear both a drug test and a Level 2 background screening through the Clearinghouse. For information about this screening you may go to the website.
